NERUL-NAVI-MUMBAI, MARCH 09, 2013: The 'FUN WITH SCIENCE' Programme was held in Don Bosco, Nerul on February 06, 2013 from 09 a.m to 11a.m to inculcate scientific temper in our students and to discover how much fun and exciting science can really be.

It was conducted by Dr A.M. Bhagwat, Chairman and Mr S. P. Agarwal, Programme Co-ordinator of Navi Mumbai Science Foundation. Students of Classes Sixth to Eight participated in the programme.

Scientific principles were explained with the help of demonstrations. Students also learnt about the effect of gravity, conservation of energy and magnetism by performing simple experiments which they could practise at home too.

The programme was designed to develop curiosity and help them appreciate the important ideas of science. Dr Bhagwat and Mr Agarwal told the students that just learning from textbooks was not enough. He encouraged the students to use the scientific method to find answers to questions that is through observations and experiments.

At the end of the programme the students thanked the organisers for a session packed with fun and for the interesting information about the world of science.
